I have had this store up since Sept .. all of a sudden we get this message:

 

FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!

 

 

Do WE have to do someting ... do you think something changed at the host ?

 

Should contact them ? I search the forums for registered globals - but those folks seemed to have problems in the beginning..

 

Our store has been working ... now this ?

 

Thanks

It is not uncomon for a host to decide to turn off register_globals. Eventually all hosts will do it. I'm surprised that your host waited ths long.

 

 

OK I did this but now I get a 500 server configuration error ?

 

I guess we have to call the host - again ... I think it's like a computer in his friends basement - and tech support is leave a phone message and we'll get back to you eventually.

 

thanks

Place it at the top of your .htaccess file

 

Also try it without the = sign

 

php_flag register_globals ON

 

 

However it may not be allowed by admin settings - but you can try

 

Also, if the host turned off register_globals, the chance of them turning them back on are probably fairly slim.

The host can turn off register globals for the server but have an exception. I can't remeber how it was done but I had this done for my store. My Host turned it off and then after me calling him he set it up so only my account would have it on
